To add what NightAntilli said, the move is actually a 19 frame attack; it sabakis highs on frames 2 through 7. I like using it from time to time, but you're vulnerable to Hi-Counter Throws on the first few frames. Additionally, I tend to rely on :3::3::p+k: for high-crushing, perhaps more...

I have lots of difficulties on defense, too. :p:, :6::p:, and :2::p: are Kokoro's fastest attacks (10, 12, and 13 frames respectively). These are basically the only attacks you can rely on to outspeed someone. :6::6::p: is a 14-frame attack (good at a little farther away, though), and...

What's Kokoro's? Other than backing away and 214P/236P whiff punishing?

When your only realistic options to deal with the ground game are force-teching or backing far away... The priority on wake-up kicks is a bug in and of itself.

:6::6::p+k: puts them in an unholdable state, so Heichu is guaranteed (:P: doesn't work in a lot of situations though). The Heichu throw puts them in a holdable critical stun, so they can hold whatever you throw out. EDIT: Pretty sure everything else is holdable.

It's odd, because I have a hard time landing :6::6::p+k: Heichu :P: by itself on Kasumi, but after the throw, I can get it about 95%. Not sure what's going on with that. And thanks for the damage improvement on the wall combo. Anything that makes Kokoro more deadly is a good thing.

I'll get better at the game... some day.

:1::H+P: is one of my favorite moves because it's such a great way to convince people not to low hold. To start off, it's a crouch throw that grants +20f advantage, non-critical stun, so they can't hold out of it. There are three main options you have: (Note: I used Bass as the target of...

They're starting to show up as of late. I got schooled by one of 'em.

I'm liking it a lot more than DOA4, and I played the hell out of that. And I also was a 'Tomi player then. 6H+P > 6PK > 6H+P > 7PK never gets old.

Good games to BBoy Dragon TK, AxD UN4GETABLE, Calypso13200, and CrazySteady. Holy crap, Steady, your Sarah is scary.

I have a habit of going hold-crazy (and eating HCTs in the process) if I can't slow-escape and I can't read strings.

I really like that :h+k: setup. Only thing you have to watch for is backdashing, since they can avoid the elbow that way.

:1::f+p: is so crazy good. Go for a launch with :7::k:, or go for a critical burst setup with :6::6::p+k::p+k::p:, or get 100 damage if you're next to a wall.

Leon's my favorite of the grapplers not only because of his rather painful repertoire, but because he was a grappler with a passable strike game. Bayman's too hold-focused, Bass doesn't have enough strikes, and Tina has too much strike focus. Mila's kind of all over the place.

TN should add a seppuku option so characters can really show Samurai Spirit.

I had MS Points to burn, so I bought the small swimsuit pack for Kokoro. And that's it. EDIT: And I now know what a DSRV is.

If they're going to keep that warp backdash in, might as well give it to everyone. Other than Mila and the Virtua Fighters, who's the fifth character that can warpdash?

Good games to AngryWorm last night and Ransuu and Jeffcore tonight. I'll get better... eventually.

I made an error concerning :h+k:; if they don't slow escape, then after :6::6::P:, :1::K::K::P: won't launch (second kick will knock down). You'll have to do :3::K::P: instead, assuming there's not a better option. Basically, if the :6::6::P: registers as a 2-hit combo, :3::K::P:. If it...
